Scavo Hand Blown Vase

$85.00

Mid-century art glass. Beautiful “bud vase” made by the Italian Scavo technique. Just a couple of tiny spots where the ribbing is missing. Does NOT take away from the value or appearance of a well-worn (ancient Roman glass-style) piece of pale aqua blue mouth blown glass.
